The moment I hopped into d’ cab
we took off for the airport soon
the driver was in the proper lane,
my flight was at 2 in d’ afternoon
We moved toward our destination
with no hurry and no need to race
in front of us, a black car abruptly
jumped out of one parking space
My cab driver slammed on d’ brakes,
skidding & missing that car by inches!
d’ other guy whipped d' head around,
began yelling at us with foul language
Yet my poor chap gave a thin smile,
acted friendly and waved at d’ guy
before I could grasp his curious act,
we moved ahead, bid him a goodbye
How dare he do that? I retorted,
the guy almost smashed our car!
could have sent us to d’ hospital
or maybe to the heavenly abode
Certain species exist in our society,
who run around with all filthy stuff
carrying their frustrations and anger,
have disappointments, seem rough
As their wasteful rubbish piles up,
they need somewhere to dump it
woefully they might dump it on u,
why take it personally, why fight?
Why unwillingly accept the garbage,
take it on our shoulders, spread it?
on the peace-loving people at work,
innocent souls at home/on d' streets
D’ wise don’t let d’ garbage trucks
casually take over their nice day
why lose your mental peace and
invite irrelevant negativity to stay
Just smile, wave, and wish them well,
never get surprised or go into shock
take it casually; things often happen,
that's the Law of the Garbage Truck
